All Hail Xavier Carter! Phenominal accomplishments in NCAA track history!

If he continues to perform this way in track, we could retire his track number?

SACRAMENTO, CALIF. - Xavier Carter can claim one of the greatest performances in the history of college track, one so good that it rivals none other than Jesse Owens.

The LSU sophomore became the first person to win the 100 and 400 meters at the NCAA track and field championships Saturday, running down the competition in races just 31 minutes apart.

He finished his day as the anchor of the winning 1,600-meter relay team. Combined with the winning 400 relay team the previous night, he had a share of four NCAA event titles.

According to meet officials, Carter is the first to achieve four NCAA victories since Owens won both short sprints, the 220-yard low hurdles and long jump for Ohio State in 1935 and '36.

Good picture of the X-man there.

WOW! I'm impressed!

Hard to imgagine just how insane winning both the 100 and 400 are. Way harder than doing the 100/200 or 200/400.

100 meter guys say it is painful to even say 400 much less run it.

TJ Ribs had better try to get a pair of his track shoes, while they are still affordable.

I wish I was there. That's why I like track, it's raw athleticism.
